What is RadicalShift AI?

RadicalShift.ai represents the paradigm shift the artificial intelligence (AI) brings upon all of us, from the way we live and work to the way we do business. To help cope with these fundamental changes across life, industries and the world in general, we are obsessively observing (30+ markets across multiple continents) and covering the AI industry while building a scalable open platform aimed at people, businesses and industry stakeholders to contribute across (benefit from) the entire spectrum of the AI industry from news, views, insights to knowledge, deployments, entities, people, products, tools, jobs, investors, pitch decks, and beyond, helping build what would potentially be a resourceful, insightful, knowledgeable and analytical source for AI related news, information and resources, ultimately becoming the AI industry graph/repository.
